The author uses the conversation between Mr. White, Mrs. White, and Herbert in paragraphs 68 and 70 to foreshadow that-

A. Mr. and Mrs. White will have their wish granted.
B. Herbert will get a raise at work equal to the wish granted.
C. The wish will be granted in an unexpected manner
D. Two hundred pounds will fall on Mr White's head.
Paragraph 68 through 70 -
"I suppose all those old soldiers are the same", said Mrs White. "The idea of our listening to such nonsense! How could wishes be granted in these days? And if they could, how could you hundred pounds hurt you, father?" "My drop on his head from the sky, said Herbert. "Morris said the things happened so naturally, said his father, that you might if you so wish to attribute it to coincidence."

This question refers to the short story "The Monkey's Paw," by W. W Jacobs.
In the story, the Whites have a friends over, a sergeant who has been to India.
The man brings with him a mummified paw that, he says, will grant three wishes. However, he advises the Whites not to use it.
In the paragraphs we are analyzing here, the Whites are talking about the paw's powers. Mr. White mentions the fact that the wishes come true in such natural ways that it seems they happened by coincidence.
This serves as foreshadowing, that is, a prediction of what will happen later in the story.
The author is revealing that, when the Whites make their wish, it will be granted in an unexpected manner.
In conclusion, letter C is the best option as to what is foreshadowed in the paragraphs.
